Jamie has been chosen by the Italian designer Stefano Pilati to represent the new campaign of his brand Zegna for January 2014. Campaign photos will depict different portraits delegate to Jamie and model Paolo Anchisi . As the brand opened a new store in America other night, there was an event in Beverly Hills for its opening where guests could see the exclusive portraits of this new photoshoot hanging on the walls of the store.

Stefano Pilati about Jamie:

“Jamie was our face of choice, not only because he is an accomplished actor, but also an unconventional model with a strong personal sense of style and substance. He has made understatement the key to his success.”

50 shades of gray: Jamie Dornan and Dakota Johnson in a new fan trailer
Here is a new video of a lover of the nuances

It seems that finally we can breathe a sigh of relief: the two faces who will play Christian Grey and Anastasia Steele should no longer change. There is talk of Jamie Dornan and Dakota Johnson, selected by the production at two different times. Initially, in fact, to support the beautiful Dakota in the main cast of the movie “50 shades of gray,” the first book of the trilogy erotica from the pen of E. L. James, there had to be Charlie Hunnam, actor known for his participation in the drama “Sons of Anarchy”.

After just one month of the official announcement of the name, that’s the beautiful Charlie says that he was retiring, claiming to be too busy with the last season of the TV series in order to work on the set of “50 shades of gray.” Many did not believe this explanation, rather than thinking about the real reason was the negative reaction that the public has shown the choice of Charlie Hunnam to impersonate Christian Grey.

The production did not waste any more time, and in a few days after the resignation of the actor, was named as his replacement Jamie Dornan. The beautiful Irish model, born in 1982, is well known as the face for several fashion labels such as Hugo Boss, Calvin Klein and Armani. His film debut was in 2006, when Jamie starred as a sensual Count von Fersen in “Marie Antoinette” by Sofia Coppola film shot.

Now that the names of the two future Christian Grey and Anastasia Steele should be the final ones, the fans they are waiting for the start of filming: the first take, originally scheduled for Nov. 5 at the North Shore Studios, is now postponed to 2 December. For this reason also the end of the recordings has been moved forward, no longer to January 20, but at the end of February. No news as regards the release of the film, at the time set for 1 August 2014 in American theaters, and 18 September next year in Italy. (G.s.)

I loved the books and know that seldom do the actors measure up to the character in our imaginations. I had never heard of Jamie Dornan until it was announced that he won the role of Christian Grey. I then watched the unofficial trailers made by Matt Bomer, Ian Somerhalder and Jamie Dornan. That convinced me that Mr. Dornan fits the role best. There will have to be physical changes made such as hair and eye color but that is easy for Hollywood makeup artists. Presence and believability are not. I remember the hoopla over the casting of Rob Pattinson as Edward Cullen. Armchair casting directors eviscerated the guy before the first movie came out saying he was ugly and wrong for the part. Well, five movies later, he IS Edward Cullen to millions of fans all over the world. Ithink the same thing will happen in Shades. I was less enthusiastic about the choice for Ana as I thought thhe choice of Alexis Blebel was physically perfect with her gorgeous hair and stunning blue eyes. But I didn’t see the readings for the part or the chemistry between the two actors. Since the director and producers want a huge success at the box office, they will pick the right actors for the res, particularly since this is a franchise.

Almost two weeks after “Fifty Shades of Grey” author E.L. James announced that actor Jamie Dornan would take on the coveted role of Christian Grey in the film adaptation, the actor surfaced on Twitter — but not to talk about the casting. The 31-year-old Irish native didn’t use his newfound fame to address his role in the film of the best-selling erotic book series, but rather used social media to promote an ad for family friends.

“People I care about made an advert,” Dornan wrote late Tuesday, adding, “Apart from the obvious fire hazard, I think it’s great. Looking sharp, CB!” tweeted the star.

Jamie Dornan Tweets
Actor Jamie Dornan released his first tweet, an ad for Belfast, Northern Ireland, jewelry store Fred J. Malcolm Ltd., since being cast in “Fifty Shades of Grey.” Twitter
The advertisement, which promotes Fred J. Malcolm Ltd., a family-owned jewelry store based in Belfast, Northern Ireland, doesn’t portray Dornan as Christian Grey, but it does tell the love story of a man and a woman and the man’s extensive efforts to pull off an elaborate marriage proposal.

According to the Fred J. Malcolm Ltd. Twitter page, the star of the clip tweeted by Dornan is an individual named Conor Brady. According to the store, Dornan wasn’t able to star in the commercial due to his busy filming schedule. “@JamieDornan1 It was a toss-up between Johnny’s son of Jim’s son (your dad), but we heard on the grapevine that you’re a bit busy” tweeted the store Tuesday following Dornan’s promotion of the advertisement.

Dornan last updated his Twitter account in late September following the completion of his most recent project, the romance film “Flying Home,” directed by Dominique Deruddere. “That’s a wrap! #newworlds #ineedsleep” the actor posted Sept. 27.

James, 50, announced that Dornan would take on the role of her book series’ sexually sadistic Seattle billionaire on Twitter in October after the sudden departure of the film’s former star, “Sons of Anarchy” actor Charlie Hunnam. Dornan is set to start filming the first installment of the three-book series in early December in Vancouver alongside former “Ben and Kate” sitcom star Dakota Johnson (Anastasia Steele).

“Fifty Shades of Grey” is scheduled to premiere in theaters Aug. 1, 2014.

“Fifty Shades of Grey” is scheduled to begin filming on Nov. 1, 2013 in Vancouver and has a release date of Aug. 1, 2014. The first trailer for the film is expected to be released during the 2014 Superbowl in February.

for me..he is hotter than charlie hunnam.. did i spell his surname correctly? and jamie is more regal looking than charlie.. he is like matt bomer but of course,matt would have been the perfect for the role.e more I see Jamie, the more I can picture him as Christian. He’s defiantly has the qualities for Mr. Grey just needs a lil more meat on him lol. I fully support Dakota as well. So can’t wait to see them bring everyone’s favorite characters to life. Team 50!
